Subscribe to regular market updates. Set on a wonderfully wide allotment (approx 672sqm), this magnificent double-storey residence has been adored by generations of the one family since 1955. Defined by its Californian grandeur, floorplan flexibility and fabulous living/entertaining spaces this remarkable home is set to deliver a lavish family lifestyle for decades to come. Beyond the lush front garden and irresistible street appeal of its gorgeous facade, the home’s refined interior showcases four generous bedrooms (extra-large main with WIR) complemented by a double-vanity ensuite and two additional bathrooms. Floorplan flexibility is further underscored by the inclusion of a dedicated home office, elegant lounge, formal dining room and spacious open-plan living/meals area serviced by a marble-top kitchen with Ilve oven and Miele dishwasher. High ornate ceilings, lead-light windows and solid hardwood floors all add to the allure, along with ducted heating, evaporative cooling, large laundry and attic storeroom, as well as a profusion of natural light throughout. Completing the picture is a north-facing oasis with vine-draped entertaining area, outdoor BBQ kitchen, established fruit trees and picturesque gardens, plus a large storeroom/garage, additional carport and circular driveway with remote-control gates. Footsteps to local buses, popular cafes and specialty shops, it’s also close to some of the area’s finest schools both public and private, as well as easy access to Aberfeldie Park, riverside trails, Essendon Station and Citylink. 6 Aberfeldie Street Essendon 14-22 Vida Street Aberfeldie Our Lady of the Nativity School 29 Fawkner Street Aberfeldie Aberfeldie Primary School Doone Street Essendon Edward Street Essendon Buckley Park College Cooper Street Essendon St Columba's College Ltd 2 Leslie Road Essendon Lowther Hall Anglican Grammar School 17 Leslie Road Essendon Moonee Ponds West Primary School 150 Athol Street Moonee Ponds Essendon Primary School Raleigh Street Essendon Essendon North Primary School St Margaret's Primary School 67 The Esplanade Maribyrnong St Monica's Primary School 20 Robinson Street Moonee Ponds St John Bosco's School 6 Teague Street Niddrie Rosehill Secondary College Sapphire Street Niddrie St Bernard's College 41 Rosehill Road Essendon St Vincent de Paul's School Woodland Street Strathmore 74 Roseberry Street Ascot Vale Strathmore Primary School Lloyd Street Strathmore Moonee Ponds Central School Wilson Street Moonee Ponds Ascot Vale Primary School Bank Street Ascot Vale Strathmore Secondary College 400 Pascoe Vale Road Strathmore Pascoe Vale South Primary School 411 - 429 Reynard Street Pascoe Vale South Ascot Vale West Primary School Langs Rd Ascot Vale Maribyrnong Secondary College River Street Maribyrnong Penleigh & Essendon Grammar School Rachelle Road Keilor East Essendon East Keilor District College Quinn Grove Keilor East Brunswick Special Developmental School 18a Wales Street Brunswick West Ascot Vale Special School 1 Tasma Street Ascot Vale Brunswick North West Primary School Culloden Street Brunswick West
